It's For The Best (A Pokémon Songfic)

There are times when you ask yourself how you are ever going to be able to move on in life without the support of your old friends and family who have always been there for you.

Goodbyes are one of those farewells that are easily taken for granted every single day. Who's to say that your 'bye, see you tomorrow,' won't be the last words that you'll ever say to them?

Time is always running out, even when your moments with them seem to carry on forever. You never know when it's the last time you will ever see them again, and when it is, they leave you alone in the pits of the sandbox of your sorrows and regrets.

No matter how prepared you are or how much effort you put into training yourself to anticipate the end, there will still be the pain. No matter how you depart from them, in distance or in death, there will still be sadness.

How will we be able to pick ourselves back up again and return to the top of the jungle gym that life puts all of us through?

It takes a lot of courage to say goodbye to a loved one for the last time for a long time, but even more so to be able to accept it, understand it, and learn from it, to keep ourselves in high spirits.

Is it cowardly? Is it rude to simply shrug it off like it was nothing?

It's all in how you look at it, and if it is really--

For the best
